A vision for the impact of AI
AWS CEO Andy Jassy discussed how artificial intelligence (AI) is shaping the future with Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon.

Solomon: Can you share your vision for the impact of AI?

Jassy: At Amazon, we’ve been working with AI and ML for 20 years. You can see it in
(1) product recommendations on our retail site,
(2) pick paths for associates in the fulfillment centers,
(3) Prime Air drone effort,
(4) Amazon Go,
(5) Alexa, and much more.

The AWS AI stack enables more organizations to utilize AI and ML:
For people who don’t want to build models: plug into a model that AWS has built (e.g., Rekognition, Translate, Textract)
Largest number of potential users; least skill required
For data scientists and everyday developers: SageMaker is a service to build, train, tune, and deploy ML models
For AI practitioners & experts: people comfortable picking the algorithm, training the model, tuning the model, etc.
Smallest number of users; highest expertise required (most of these people are at big tech companies)

An increase in CEO pay
For the period 1990 through 2016, median CEO pay at large US companies grew by over 400 percent. Researchers found the following factors to have contributed to this:
Public disclosure of CEO pay: the creation of the SEC in 1934 made the disclosure of executive compensation mandatory for all publicly traded firms. By comparing pay, CEOs pressured companies to pay more.
Growth in company size: as companies got bigger, so did CEO pay. For a 10% increase in company size, CEO pay goes up by 3%.
CEO turnovers: the median CEO tenure in 2017 was 5.0 years (down from 6.0 years in 2013). Incoming CEOs are paid more, on average, than the departing CEO.
